Reviews
"Hmm – bright, slightly reductive, wide and highly attractive nose. Much more gas, but volume and interesting flavour. Light airy complexity very tasty but I’ve found more appeal in the previous wines."
"Pale lemon yellow. The nose has an attractive oatmeal aspect along with some zesty lemon scent fruit. This is a light-bodied, accessible Saint-Romain, without too much acidity that will give pleasure straightaway."
